Super League side announce amazing ticket sales for Magic Weekend

For much of this year it has been questioned whether the 2023 Magic Weekend will be the last event of its kind.

However, there have been recent reports that the Magic Weekend could stay at least for 2024.

But there is clearly still an appetite from fans with one Super League club announcing an amazing following for the weekend.

Castleford Tigers have sold over 2,000 tickets as they get ready to take on Leeds Rhinos on Day One of the game.

They have less than 50 tickets left in the Gallowgate End.

Recently, Sky Sports reporter Kyle Walker has stated that it is unclear now if this will be the last Magic Weekend suggesting that there is a chance it could continue into 2024.

“The Magic Weekend is just days away but even with it so close the future of the event is still unclear,” Walker said.

“It still isn’t certain whether or not this will be the last event of its kind.”

There has been talk that IMG are wanting to get rid of the Magic Weekend but according to an update from RL Commercial at the start of the season, this had yet been rubber-stamped.

They stated: “It’s part of the loop fixtures, the view is that loop fixtures are disappearing. That was part of the recommendations but they’re not rubber-stamped immediately so we’re going through the process of looking at the calendar in totality.
